One of the top games in the Ghanaian Premier League this weekend will see league leaders Samartex host Bibiani Gold Stars. Bibiani Gold Stars head into this game needing a win to secure their place in the league. However, they face a Samartex side that can’t afford to drop points in their title bid. The hosts are coming from a shock 2-0 loss away to struggling Heart of Lions. It is however not too surprising that they suffered an away loss. Samartex haven't been as strong on the road as they’ve been at home. It is for this reason that they’ll feel as favorites hosting this game. In their last six home matches, Samartex produced straight wins, keeping clean sheets in four of them. In their last two home matches they scored four times and kept clean sheets. In the last 20 home matches, Samartex have lost just once while winning 18. The last time they hosted Bibiani was in November 2022 and they lost 3-0, so we expect revenge to be on their minds.

Bibiani Gold Stars have dominated previous encounters with Samartex, including their first meeting of the season. Hosting the game, Bibiani thrashed Samartex 3-0 in December 2023. They visit Samartex for just the second time and hope to register a fourth straight win. Ahead of this game they warmed up with a 2-1 win over Dreams, ending a run of three winless matches. They had failed to score in two of those three earlier matches, including a 4-0 defeat to Nsoatreman. Bibiani are a win away from securing their place in the league but will need a bigger effort to achieve that. They’ve won just twice in their last six matches and managed only three clean sheets in their last 10 matches. it is their away form that forms the biggest chunk of their concerns. The visitors failed to score in the last three away matches, and have just a win in 25 games on the road. In five of their last 10 matches, they conceded two or more goals.
